I still have my logs from 26 years ago . . . replace paper with electronic
logs & converted all paper.

After 40 plus years, I though I had seen near everything having to do with
QSL confirmations, but today I was taken aback by one of my own cards being
returned, with a note "NOLOGS - NO CARDS CANT VERIFY TOO LONG AGO" This
was a (at least) third attempt at obtaining confirmatiion for two contacts
with C9RJJ back in 1992. Heck, that is only 13 years ago. Just a year
before I retired. Hi. I have gotten QSL requests, and in fact still get
an ocassional query about contacts from the mid 60s (ET3), and have the logs
back from my time as a Novice, before that. Does anyone here know exactly
who the op was then?
I have seen notes about people "closing out" their logs, and it has
bumfuzzeled me to see that, but I guess some people do it.
The only other note, about no logs, was from an expedition in the South
Pacific several years ago. Appears they dropped them overboard as they were
embarking from the island. Luckly, the same group again visited that
island, years later, and I worked them again. This time they protected the
logs. HI
Luckly, I have a couple of other contacts with C9 (but from the same era),
and will have to go out and try to find two more poeple who have their logs.
